Man As Factory


I always loved this poster showing Man and his biological processes as a factory. Once I discovered a 2009 video short to go with it I knew I had a post here. Very cool stuff. Click to enlarge.

"In 1926, Fritz Kahn created the poster “Man As Industrial Palace.” as was appropriate for the Art Deco era, he depicted the human body as a factory run by little workers processing food, moving blood, and pumping engines. Henning Lederer took this idea and turned it into an animated short."
